Description
Regenerating British Columbia's Forests will assist those responsible for planning reforestation projects to reach informed decisions and will challenge them to consider primarily the biological factors basic to reforestation success rather than short-term costs and production technology. Although its main audience is practising foresters and forestry students of British Columbia, the text will be of considerable interest to foresters in other parts of Canada, the United States, and Europe who manage reforestation.

Editorial Reviews
The book is attractively produced, with many clear illustrations and tables. It brings together a wealth of information for practitioners and, in fact, anyone interested in this crucial issue in the management of BC forests.
- Bart J. Van der Kamp, BC Studies
This book...will prove to be an excellent source of basic information for anyone working in forest management, silviculture, and forest regeneration not only in British Columbia but in surrounding areas as well.
